Good stuff to which I will likely link each day. You should read.
Game 1: Astros 1, Mets 0
The Mets entered their NLCS against the Astros as a very confident team after a dominant 108-win regular season. It took them nine innings to be completely humbled.
The pitcher’s duel between Mets ace Dwight Gooden and eventual Cy Young winner Mike Scott was tremendous. The only blemish on Gooden’s record was a second-inning home run by Astros cleanup hitter Glenn Davis.
